Purpose 11 is a research and innovation company. We move between strategy, software and applied intelligence to turn uncertain opportunities into useful systems.

Operating model

Three layers.
One purpose.

We combine deep thinking with shipping discipline. The aim is not to produce more strategy or more software-it is to create better decisions and durable leverage.

01 / RESEARCH

See the system.

Find the real problem, the evidence around it and the assumptions worth testing.

02 / STRATEGY

Choose the bet.

Turn ambiguity into an explicit opportunity, operating model and path to value.

03 / PRODUCT

Make it real.

Design, prototype and deploy systems that survive contact with real users and real constraints.

“The future is not a category. It is a sequence of decisions.”

Purpose 11 exists to work at that sequence. We look for the point where an old operating assumption stops making sense, then build a better one.

Our home is Nairobi. Our work is designed to travel.

Next move

Bring us a hard problem.

A strategy question, a product that needs a new direction, or an idea that should become real.
